Hey Kit Kat here, so I wrote again and I was wondering what squad Karin should be in.. And I was wondering which squad she should be in. I'm thinking the 6th, 9th, 10th,11th, or 13th.
The assessment
The fukutaicho were amazed by this girls amazing ability with the shinigami arts. She was a true prodigy.
"I wonder if she can hold a drink?" Matsumoto said to herself.
"Who cares about that, I wanna see her play with Ken-chan?" Yachiru said excitedly.
"She probably could already hold a seated position," Shuhei said.
"I don't know about what you guys think, but didn't her Reiatsu seem similar?" Renji asked.
"Hmm...You're right; it kind of felt similar to Ichigo's!" Rangiku said.
"Demo..don't you think her Reiatsu was more controlled," Nano said.
"What was her name again?" Isane asked.
"Kuroki Karin," the silent Nemu said.
The Fukutaichou discussed more against themselves before going to their taichou to discuss.
Sixth squad
"Is there anymore graduates you wish to discuss Abarai?" Kuchiki-taicho asked.
"Hai Taicho, there is one, she's a first year," Renji said.
Byakuya looked up with mild interest, "Souka, may I see her profile?" The black haired apathetic man asked. Renji passed him a sheet of paper.

Byakuya looked at the picture, so this was Takashi's friend. And possibly Ichigo's Imoto, maybe he should let her into his squad just to keep an eye on her; Kami knows how much he owed that orange haired human.
Ninth Squad
"Taicho we should look into the prodigy, she might be an asset to our squad." Shuhei said to Kensei
Tenth squad
"Taicho you should have seen this girl fight!" Matsumoto said in a sing song voice, "She was cute too.
Toshiro rubbed his head in frustration, "Matsumoto we don't recruit people based on their looks," he said plainly.
"But Taicho she's a first year, and she beat a fifth year," Rangiku said excitingly, "She's just like you! Ano...It would be weird if there were two people like you in the squad."
"Hn" Toshiro said before turning back to the applicants Matsumoto put in front of him.
"Ano Taicho.." Rangiku said seriously, Toshiro looked up "She looks alot like the Karin-chan from the world of the living." Toshiro looked shocked before grabbing the paper in Rangiku's hand and staring at the raven haired girl's picture.
Eleventh squad
"Ken-chan! I found somebody you could play with!" Yachiru said excitingly.
"He must be strong if Yachiru thinks he can survive Taicho," Ikkaku said.
"As long as he fights beautifully, I'll be fine with him," Yumichika said while looking in a mirror.
"Who cares, if he cuts me I definitely want to recruit him," Kenpachi said.
"No you got it all wrong Tenshi-chan is a girl!" Yachiru said excitingly, "I won't be the only girl in the squad anymore! I wonder if she'll play with me.
Thirteenth Squad
"So she reminds you of Ichigo's deceased Imoto?" Ukitake said.
"Hai Taicho, she deeply resembles Kurosaki Karin, plus she has the quick progression like Ichigo. Even if she wasn't Ichigo's Itoko she would be a great asset to the squad.
Ukitake looked thoughtfully before quickly writing something.
At Bachan's
I was drinking tea at Bachan's, telling her how life at the academy was and about my friends.
"So did you pass the exam you were so anxious about?" She asked me. I looked at her with a proud smile.
"Hai, I'm assigned to be in the eleventh division," I said smiling, before taking another sip of tea, "I have to report there tomorrow." I said a big smile planted on my face. Bachan smiled and was about to say something, before someone knocked on the door and opened.
"Bachan, I've come." Bachan's face lit up at the new voice, and I stared curiously as she left the room. I closed my eyes, this person had Reiryoku, and I scrunched my face in wonder. Why did it feel familiar?
"We have company Toshiro-chan," Bachan said before guiding a white haired boy towards the table. He wore a black hakama and a green scarf and had a zanpakuto on his back.
"Kyo wa," I said warmly, "I'm Kuroki Karin" I said. The boy just stared at me with surprise and shock. It looked like he just saw a ghost.
"Ano...Daijoubu?" I asked, "You look a little pale." The boy whom I'm assuming was Toshiro shook out of his shock.
"I'm Toshiro," he said stiffly. He turned back to Bachan, and I realized this must be the grandson Bachan was talking about. I didn't want to intrude so I got up.
"Gomenasai Bachan, I have to go and return my uniform,"I got up bowed, "Ja ne." I waved and ran out the door.
Well that was awkward.
Toshiro pov
I stared at Karin's retreating form as she ran back to the academy. She didn't give any recognition of me, and I was sad. We were good nakama when we were alive, she was one of the few nakama I had who treated me for me, and not my rank. So when she asked for my name I only gave her my first, the way she always addressed me.
"Do shita, Toshiro?" Bachan asked.
"I knew that girl before," I stated still staring to where she left off.
"Ikaga?" Bachan asked like she was surprised.
"We were nakama in the world of the living," I said, I turned around to face the old woman who raised me, "It doesn't matter anymore." I said sadly. I spent the rest of the evening with Bachan only wondering what squad Karin would be going to.
Reporting in
I stared at the eleventh division, it was known for violence, hate for Kido, and it's even more violent taicho who was either a masochist or belligerent. Maybe I would enjoy this. I walked into the division, it smelled like sweat and body odor. I didn't mind the sweat but the body odor was kind of repulsive. I walked toward the waiting hall with thirty other guys, I sighed seeing I was the only girl here. People stared at me with surprise like they didn't expect me to pass. Stupid sixth years. I looked for any familiar face and was surprised to see Aozora. He nodded and I waved in acknowledgement. I'm glad he made it through, he was a powerful fighter. Suddenly, we all heard a ruckus.
"Stop calling me pinball," an angry voice screamed in indiction.
"How unbeautiful Ikkaku, you don't want to meet the new recruits with that face" A calm haughty voice said.
"Urusai Yumichika!" The same voice answered.
"Oi, both of you shut up, or I won't let you fight the new recruits!" A deep voice said.
"Hai, Taicho." Both voices responded. The screen slided to reveal a tall guy who towered over me by more than a foot, the eleventh division's fukutaicho hung from his shoulder. A eyepatch hung on his left eye hand a scar rang down his face on the other., he had a tattered white Haori on which signified he was the Taicho. A bald man with red paint on his eyelids followed, and up behind him came a guy with feather eyelashes and feathers colling out of his ears.
The Taicho glanced at me with interest.
"Listen up, I'm going to let Ikkaku and Yumichika fight you, if any of you make it past thirty seconds you've got a seated position," he said. I stared in shock, well guess we'll get right down to it. "Yumichika you can go first."
The guy with feathers, who I assumed was Yumichika, stepped forward. He looked at all of us, like he was inspecting us. His eyes landed on me.
"You seem very beautiful, almost as beautiful as me. I'll spar you." I stared at this guy, he was a narcissist, how did he get in this division.
"Nani!? No fair Yumichika! I wanted to spar her!" I stared at the hot headed bald man.
Nevertheless, me and Yumichika went to the training grounds, everyone surrounded us, watching. This felt just like passing exam. Kenpachi Taicho sat down his sword stuck in the ground, his face plastered with a large maniac smile.
Yumichika and I drew our swords, and in an instant the fight began.
He was faster than me, and his strikes were hard. I sped up getting more serious by the second. He made a strike to my head and I barely was able parry with my sword. We made a few more strikes. And I noticed I had lost ground. Yumichika soon came on with more seriousness. I got slashed on the arm and blood splashed the ground. I would loose if it kept going like this. A few seconds later, with a few more cuts, I was panting my legs shaking with exhaustion. Yumichika came at me again.
"Reap with fire, Hishitenshi!" My sword changed, and red Reiatsu surrounded me. I charged Yumichika and nicked his face.
"How Unbeautiful," he said then he raised his Zanpakuto, "Bloom, Fuji Kujaku" His Reiatsu burst and his blade changed into a scythe.
I charged at the vain man, our blades crossing with a clash of Reiatsu. I came at Yumichika with speed and swiftness. Soon we were both married with more cuts, and in Yumichika's case burns. Yumichika narrowed his eyes he swung at my right side, I brought my Zanpakuto to parry, but he feinted left. He cut me across my side. Pain exploded through me. I didn't have enough experience, I knew I had a stronger zanpakuto, but in the end it was all about experience. My vision went blurry. I fell to the ground, my last thought was 'How many times is this going to happen to me'
Third person,
Yumichika stared at the unconscious girl, a slight frown on his face.
"You kind of got a little too serious Yumichika, we don't want to kill the new recruits," Ikkaku said, "Still she was pretty strong to last a minute and twenty three seconds." Yumichika stayed silent, "What's wrong?"
"Do you think this will scar my beautiful face?" Yumichika asked pointing to the cut on his face.
"Nani!" Ikkaku said with a sweat drop, before sighing, "We should probably get her to the Fourth," Ikkaku turned to two members, "You two bring her to the Fourth division!"
